ISO
International Organization for Standardization. An international body that defines global
standards for electronic and other industries.
P
PC
personal computer.
Q
QAM
quadrature amplitude modulation. An amplitude and phase modulation technique for
representing digital information and transmitting that data with minimal bandwidth. Both
phase and amplitude of carrier waves are altered to represent the binary code. By
manipulating two factors, more discrete digital states are possible and therefore larger binary
schemes can be represented.
R
RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service. A networking protocol that provides centralized
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) management for computers to connect
and use a network service.
RF
radio frequency. The frequency in the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is above
